Shaun Pollock
Shaun Pollock was the bowling mainstay for the Proteas in the 90s, bowling tight lines at a nagging pace, enough to disconcert the best of batsmen. He was more than able with the bat too, providing crucial contributions down the order on many occasions.
He was given a contract with the Mumbai Indians in the first season, and bowled admirably with the new ball, as well as foxed batsmen with his variations, especially the slow bouncer, in the latter overs.
He picked up 11 wickets from 13 matches, bowling at an economy of just 6.54.He didn’t play the subsequent editions, and quietly stepped in the role of a mentor and coach.
